The practice at Hardscrabble Zendo is Tathagata Zen as taught by Joshu Sasaki, Roshi. This practice is designed to facilitate the actual experience of the Dharma Activity, the activity that brings forth the entire universe. It is through this experience that one comes to know one’s fundamental nature, thereby realizing Buddhahood. Long study is usually required; zazen and proper breathing are the major tools utilized.
